This privacy policy is intended to inform you how we collect, use, share, and protect your information on this website. The following principles govern our information practices:

If we collect personal information from or about you, we will tell you what personal information is being collected, how, by whom, and for what purposes.

We will let you know what information, such as your name, telephone number, address, email address, or other personally identifiable information (collectively, "personal information") we are collecting, how it will be used, and whether it may be disclosed to a third party. We will identify the personal information that you must provide and the personal information that you may, at your option, provide.
We may disclose your personal information to third parties that provide support services to us. However, we will require those third parties to comply with this privacy policy and not use your personal information for any purpose other than to fulfill their business obligations to us.

We will protect personal information that is stored on our servers from unauthorized access by using commercially available computer security products (e.g., firewalls), as well as other commercially reasonable security procedures and practices.

While we will monitor and adopt new recognized industry standards when appropriate, please understand that no data security safeguards can be guaranteed or absolutely foolproof.
